Milan’s current position has not made manager Stefano Pioli happy and calm. Strangely, Pioli feels anxious, he thinks, the current situation has not given him the slightest chance of beating Milan.
Pioli said rivals such as Inter Milan, Napoli and Juventus will do their best to stop their steps to the Serie A throne.
“A strong team will come, there is still a long way to go. I think Inter, Juve and Napoli are stronger than us,” Pioli was quoted as saying by Antara. Sky Sports Italy.
“Juve are still the favorites, Inter have only lost one point from the bianconeri and now they are reinforced by players like Achraf Hakimi and Arturo Vidal,” he said.
Pioli hopes that his players will not be satisfied quickly and can perform at their best until the end of the season, because currently Milan is a target for many teams. “When we win, it’s right for the players to take the credit,” Pioli said.
